This Is Us

Our Leadership

Read below about the Board of Directors and Leadership who have come together to form IBD STRONG, INC.

Similar to our Someone Like Me: V’IBD Teens Peer Mentorship Program, our Families Like Ours: Family Team Partners are here to offer peer connectivity, insight and mentorship to the entire family. Whether you are the individual diagnosed with IBD, a spouse or partner to, sibling or parent of a child living with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, one of our IBD Strong Family Team Partners is here for you.

We currently offer Family Team Partner support in English, Spanish, Farsi, French and Hebrew.
